easy child, older friends, drinking. Does this worrying ever end?

[QUOTE="DDD, post: 551144, member: 35"] You have my understanding. Maybe...only maybe...somewhere in this world we share there are young jocks who adhere to the basic tenets of their families and are not tempted. I know that is not true in rural Florida. Truthfully I don't know which caused more worry. The girls (I do not mean the "sorry" girls) were almost driven to have sexual interaction with the "stars". Really nice girls from really nice families. The boys were vastly impressed by the alcohol intake of the "stars". Sadly in our area the next step was pot and the unsuccessful young men seemed to take pride in hooking up with the "stars". Yes, I realize that my paragraph reads inappropriately. I know for a fact that parents of "normal" boys would deny the truth in that paragraph. Your locale is structured differently than our small town sports structure for sure. on the other hand I sadly believe you have reason to worry and as a recognized outstanding caring grounded parent with decades of experience...I completely know that peer pressure can out flank parental stability and family support. Your two boys are cut from different cloth. Knowing you as a CD family member I am not sure which son of yours is more vulnerable. I have my fingers crossed for both of them and wish you the best of parenting results. Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
